Yoshi's place is next to Platinum, more accurately just opposite Grand Diamond Hotel. It is a highly convenient place if you are in BKK for shopping. Yoshi was present with his kind hospitality to us.
True as what was listed - our luggage was transported via the lift to our room, which was about 5 storeys up. Guests have to climb the flight of stairs - be it you are staying at the first or fifth floor, which was a lot for me given that I have to drop my shopping bags and go up to the room each time for a minimum 2 times per day (our room was on the highest floor). Steps in BKK are also made to be steeper, not ideal for me given my ankle was fractured before as I have to be very careful not to slip.
The picture depicted was not so true to the picture in reality as I thought it looked cosier in picture. It was hard to get down the bed without separating both beds, mattress was comfy though it looked hard. The shower was the real issue - it took me about 30 mins to shower because the shower had a water-saving feature that rationed the water to the extent I felt I had to take a longer time to shower to ensure my body was really cleaned. Yoshi was kind to attend to this urgently by getting the contractor to fix the issue.
The other issue was the blinders - It was see-through especially if you change in the room and the sun shines in at about 7 am, so be prepared it might be an issue of disturbance if you wake up later.
My suggestion to Yoshi would be to prepare extra towels for guests staying beyond 2 days and rugs on the floor for after shower.
All in all, it is a chic, affordable apartment with good enough room for luggage. Most ideal for shoppers who are shopping for wholesale fashion clothings who are not fussy about the place they stay.
